    What I'm curious about is specifically the drops from bushes now. The rare for provisioner recipes is more rare than the root drop. How much more rare? Compared to the harvester's Rare Harvest Chance, does RHC = roots + food, or does RHC = roots alone? In other words, is the food drop rate part of the RHC table now, or was it tacked on to just the normal table at an absurdly high rate?

    All I have so far are unprocessed numbers for T11. At 6% RHC, 34% BH, my ratio of Hiven:Stormthorn is 704:96.

    Without going back and comparing current hiven rates with past numbers, I can't answer the question as to whether they share a roll or not.

    Side question - Do we know for sure if the new adorning mats can be harvested in T11? By the naming convention, I would certainly expect them to drop T0 through T10, but am unsure about T11. I kinda expected to see one by now, especially having done enough harvesting to get 3 more T11 Spellshards since they went in...

    My findings are about the same. Unfortunately the adornment rares seem to be even more rare than the GM components.

    Tier One (1-9)

    Harvesting Skill = 720
    Bountiful Harvest = 76
    Rare Harvest Chance = 8

    1 - Shimmering Primordial Fragment
    22 - Nebulous Spellshards
    17 - Nebulous Foundations
    599 - Assorted Rares

    This was done over the course of multiple trips. I did not keep track of how much common material I harvested.


    RNG luck was not with me!

    not to change the subject on this maybe need a new post made

    but the new t11 rare food do you all think that the drop rate being effected by the fact the node that drops the rare food mat is also still dropping hiven roots
  7. Meirril Well-Known Member

    I'm not sure what your asking here. Obviously the drop rate of the node is a factor, and so should Rare Harvest Chance. But I don't think that is the question your trying to ask here, or at least not the point your trying to make.

    One thing that is certain is the distribution of the provisioner harvest vs rare roots is off. Nobody has looked at this closely enough to figure out why.

    I spent a couple of hours harvesting just T11 bushes in Tranquil Sea this evening. I was pretty disappointed with the rare food harvest rate. I know it's a small sample...

    I have moved down a tier to T10 in Vesspyr and I am finding that I am getting far fewer rares than ever. I seriously think there has been a change made when they added the Harvestable category on the marketplace.o_O

    I hit 150 lumber nodes in vesspyr and got ONE etherwood. I used to walk through that zone and the lumber would jump into my bags! :p
    either I am having a bad 2 hour romp through Vesspyr or they changed something.
    Type# Collects% Collects# Items% ItemsAvg Items/Collect# Rares% Rares

    bubinga lumber 6 4.00% 6 0.69% 1.00 6 85.71%

    Harvesting yesterday for AoM TS daily I got 2 stomthom rares. Are they those rares for a new food everybody talking about or just regular rares like lumiun claster or hiven roots? I think I remember getting etherwood too just harvesting for weekly ts in VS. But didn't pay much attention. I need to check my bags. Thanks.

    Another question. Are there separate recipe books for new rare crafted items if yes where to get them? Thanks.
  11. Charlice Well-Known Member


    Stormthorn are the t11 food rares. You can get the new books from the guild recipe npc. (Advanced Provvie books).

    The new books for the adorns can also be bought from the recipe npc.
